Archicad 27 - Cannot find the element by the IFC GUID generated from ACAPI_IFC_APIGuidToIFCGuid

I am using Archicad 27 API to get the IFC Global ID from method ACAPI_IFC_APIGuidToIFCGuid

However, I use the output value from API to search the element in the Archicad 27 software (Find and search function).

No result is found.

 

I would like to know how I can get the correct IFC Global ID from API?

Hi, I'd like suggest you to try ACAPI_Element_GetIFCAttributes() function, find out the property name of "GlobalId", then get the string.

HTH.
